What will piss them off is, this will be the white owners telling the black players what they can and cannot say.

There will be some kind of rule that exempts black players if used as a term of endearment.

75% of the NFL is African American, who do you think is using the N Word 75% of the time? White Boys?

It's just the NFL in CYA mode because of the bullying lawsuit that's coming down the pike. They are doing everything they can to eliminate a "hostile work environment" kind of a lawsuit.
